The Pilates Mermaid on the Chair

Mermaid on the Chair is a fabulous beginner exercise to improve lateral flexion of the spine. You get a great side stretch in the waist and it's easy to do for just about everyone.

In the video, I explain the proper setup and a spine rotation variation as well as arm pumps.
